New Features in Predict^® 2.0

The Predict 2.0 system represents a significant and comprehensive revision of the earlier versions of Predict corrosion prediction software system. Predict 2.0 incorporates a completely revised corrosion prediction module with improved prediction performance as well as more accurate pH, corrosion scaling, persistence determination and flow modeling modules.

Features of the Predict 2.0 system include,

	Improved pH determination module, with the ability to accurately characterize effects of organic acids and acid gases to pH
	Ability to account for dew point variations with respect to corrosion rates
	Ability to accurately determine scaling effects due to formation of Iron carbonate and Iron sulfide scales as a function of temperature and pH
	Ability to accurately model momentum transfer effects (flow regimes, void fractions, pressure drops and shear stresses) en-route to improved corrosion prediction
	Ability to accurately characterize role of oxygen concentration in corrosive systems
	Improved rules to account for variation of water content in oil and gas wells
	Ability to handle different types of hydro-carbons and persistence effects
	Updated economic analysis for integrating economic factors into corrosion analysis

The Predict 2.0 system has a re-designed, enhanced user interface with a host of new features:

	Module to convert data from field production report into parameters required for corrosion analysis
	Revised report generation module
	Ability to perform online cost analysis for both inhibited and non-inhibited systems
	Improved file read and write capabilities

Predict 2.0 has been designed from the ground up to be Y2K compliant and is made available with the guarantee that no aspect of program functionality will be affected by date related issues either prior to, during or after the year 2000.

It is strongly recommended that all users with previous versions of Predict (which were not designed to be Y2K compliant) upgrade to version 2.0, since the new version provides a host of new features, data, as well as improved corrosion prediction accuracy and system functionality.
